Album Details:
Digitally Remastered Edition of Three Classic LPs Combined in a Deluxe Double CD Package. Carrying on from their Earlier Bluegrass Albums, 1965's "Pickin' and Fiddlin" Featured Co-billing for Fiddler Byron Berline. The Dillards Switched Labels to Capitol for Two Singles (Included Here) Being Dissatisfied with Elektra's Marketing Department, but Returned to the Label Without Releasing an Album. In 1968, as the Byrds were Making Efforts to Bring Rock and Country Music Closer Together, the Dillards were Trying to Do Some of the Same for Bluegrass and Rock, with the Result Being "Wheatstraw Suite". Their Second Album with Rock-influenced Arrangements, "Copperfields" was Not as Barrier-busting as 1968's "Wheatstraw Suite" and They Drifted Further from their Bluegrass Roots.

If you're already a Dillards fan, no doubt you have this and love it. If you're not already a Dillards fan, no doubt now you WILL be! Also try "Backporch Bluegrass" (their purest work), There Is A Time - Mitch Jayne's anecdotes on these albums are worth it themselves - and for their crossover stuff - which I thought was way cool, "Roots and Branches" and Tribute to the American Duck". These guys are outstanding ... period.

I have been looking for " Pickin' and Fiddlin'" on DVD for quite some time, and finally found it on Amazon. The Dillards were a great Bluegrass group, especially when they did pure Bluegrass. Byron Berline is a very accomplished fiddle player. This disc contains tunes that he plays on a cross-tuned fiddle, which isn't heard too often. That in itself, makes
" Pickin and Fiddlin " worth listening to. The works on this disc are not real commonly available. It is well worth owning.
Rating: -
This cd includes the Dillards' two groundbreaking albums, "Wheatfield Suite" and "Copperfields", two of the most innovative Folk-Rock albums ever released! The sound on this release is definitely superior to the two individual cd releases of these two masterworks. A MUST HAVE, if you like this kind of music!
